I am eating some whole cheat crackers and cheese and downing it with a hot tea to try to bring myself back to normal. Looking forward to tomorrow:)<br /> This is what a pregnancy hangover feels like huh? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-anyone-else-abnormally-exhausted-after-gd-test#post-216626 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 16:03:28 +0000 lovehoneybee 216626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was completely drained after both the 1-hr screening and the 3-hr test. I was a total crank until I got something real to eat, and then I passed out when we got home. I assume it's just the way the jacking up of my blood sugar and resulting crash affected me. </p> <p>I passed my 3-hr with flying colors, though, so don't take it as an indication of how you did. I agree with Megwag, that day was rough, but I felt fine the next day, and eat some protein!</p> <p>I hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-anyone-else-abnormally-exhausted-after-gd-test#post-216616 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 15:38:00 +0000 MegWag 216616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the 3 hour GD test and it sucked. I felt fine until after it was all over when we were driving to the mall to get some food. I broke out into a flop sweat and started shaking. I scarfed down a huge Bar Burrito (kind of like an inferior Chipotle) and then crashed for the rest of the day. Seriously, I fell asleep in the car and woke up to walk inside then went back to bed for several hours. I felt fine the next day, but it was pretty rough... Feel better and eat some protein! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-anyone-else-abnormally-exhausted-after-gd-test#post-216603 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 15:18:50 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 216603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is no secret that I have been majoring drained all throughout my pregnancy, but that doesn't mean I can't get out of bed or think straight!<br /> Today after my 3-hour GD test, I am in a coma pretty much. I am writing from bed.<br /> I went in at 8am-fasting<br /> Left at 11am-fasting and blood had been drawn 4 times.<br /> I was a zombie: I don't even know how I drove home.<br /> I have been zonked out ever since and its 4:17pm now that i'm awake. I am too exhausted to get up! and I got like 9h of sleep last night!<br /> Anyone else felt like this after the test? Is this normal or is this an indication of how the results will be?</p> <p>p.s: I did eat a granola bar after my test as I got to the car. </p>
